The cache-read, cache-write, and total estimated-cost values shown in
/insights (and the per-model Cost column) were unreliable. Hide them from
both terminal and gateway renderings.
The underlying data pipeline is untouched — sessions still store
cache_read_tokens, cache_write_tokens, and estimated_cost_usd; the web
server, /usage command, and status bar are unaffected. Only the
InsightsEngine display layer is trimmed.
Changes:
- format_terminal: drop 'Cache read / Cache write' line, drop 'Est. cost'
from the Total tokens row, drop per-model 'Cost' column, drop the
'* Cost N/A for custom/self-hosted' footnote.
- format_gateway: drop cache breakdown from Tokens line, drop 'Est. cost'
line, drop per-model cost suffix.
- Tests updated to assert these strings are now absent.
Expose skill usage in analytics so the dashboard and insights output can
show which skills the agent loads and manages over time.
This adds skill aggregation to the InsightsEngine by extracting
`skill_view` and `skill_manage` calls from assistant tool_calls,
computing per-skill totals, and including the results in both terminal
and gateway insights formatting. It also extends the dashboard analytics
API and Analytics page to render a Top Skills table.
Terminology is aligned with the skills docs:
- Agent Loaded = `skill_view` events
- Agent Managed = `skill_manage` actions
Architecture:
- agent/insights.py collects and aggregates per-skill usage
- hermes_cli/web_server.py exposes `skills` on `/api/analytics/usage`
- web/src/lib/api.ts adds analytics skill response types
- web/src/pages/AnalyticsPage.tsx renders the Top Skills table
- web/src/i18n/{en,zh}.ts updates user-facing labels
Tests:
- tests/agent/test_insights.py covers skill aggregation and formatting
- tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server.py covers analytics API contract
including the `skills` payload
- verified with `cd web && npm run build`

Automated dead code audit using vulture + coverage.py + ast-grep intersection,
confirmed by Opus deep verification pass. Every symbol verified to have zero
production callers (test imports excluded from reachability analysis).
Removes ~1,534 lines of dead production code across 46 files and ~1,382 lines
of stale test code. 3 entire files deleted (agent/builtin_memory_provider.py,
hermes_cli/checklist.py, tests/hermes_cli/test_setup_model_selection.py).

The total_tokens field includes cache_read + cache_write tokens, but
the display only showed input + output — making the math look wrong
(e.g. 765K + 134K displayed but total said 9.2M). Now shows a cache
line when cache tokens are present so all visible numbers sum to the
displayed total.
Affects both terminal (hermes insights) and gateway (/insights)
formats.
Three categories of cleanup, all zero-behavioral-change:
1. F-strings without placeholders (154 fixes across 29 files)
- Converted f'...' to '...' where no {expression} was present
- Heaviest files: run_agent.py (24), cli.py (20), honcho_integration/cli.py (34)
2. Simplify defensive patterns in run_agent.py
- Added explicit self._is_anthropic_oauth = False in __init__ (before
the api_mode branch that conditionally sets it)
- Replaced 7x getattr(self, '_is_anthropic_oauth', False) with direct
self._is_anthropic_oauth (attribute always initialized now)
- Added _is_openrouter_url() and _is_anthropic_url() helper methods
- Replaced 3 inline 'openrouter' in self._base_url_lower checks
3. Remove dead code in small files
- hermes_cli/claw.py: removed unused 'total' computation
- tools/fuzzy_match.py: removed unused strip_indent() function and
pattern_stripped variable
Full test suite: 6184 passed, 0 failures
E2E PTY: banner clean, tool calls work, zero garbled ANSI
Closes#1911
- insights.py: Pre-compute SELECT queries as class constants instead of
f-string interpolation at runtime. _SESSION_COLS is now evaluated once
at class definition time.
- hermes_state.py: Add identifier quoting and whitelist validation for
ALTER TABLE column names in schema migrations.
- Add 4 tests verifying no injection vectors in SQL query construction.
Salvaged from PR #1104 by kshitijk4poor. Closes#683.
Adds a persistent status bar to the CLI showing model name, context
window usage with visual bar, estimated cost, and session duration.
Responsive layout degrades gracefully for narrow terminals.
Changes:
- agent/usage_pricing.py: shared pricing table, cost estimation with
Decimal arithmetic, duration/token formatting helpers
- agent/insights.py: refactored to reuse usage_pricing (eliminates
duplicate pricing table and formatting logic)
- cli.py: status bar with FormattedTextControl fragments, color-coded
context thresholds (green/yellow/orange/red), enhanced /usage with
cost breakdown, 1Hz idle refresh for status bar updates
- tests/test_cli_status_bar.py: status bar snapshot, width collapsing,
usage report with/without pricing, zero-priced model handling
- tests/test_insights.py: verify zero-priced providers show as unknown
Salvage fixes:
- Resolved conflict with voice status bar (both coexist in layout)
- Import _format_context_length from hermes_cli.banner (moved since PR)

These direct providers don't return cost in API responses and their
per-token pricing isn't readily available externally. Treat as local
models with zero cost so they appear in /insights without fake estimates.
Issues found and fixed during deep code path review:
1. CRITICAL: Prefix matching returned wrong prices for dated model names
- 'gpt-4o-mini-2024-07-18' matched gpt-4o ($2.50) instead of gpt-4o-mini ($0.15)
- Same for o3-mini→o3 (9x), gpt-4.1-mini→gpt-4.1 (5x), gpt-4.1-nano→gpt-4.1 (20x)
- Fix: use longest-match-wins strategy instead of first-match
- Removed dangerous key.startswith(bare) reverse matching
2. CRITICAL: Top Tools section was empty for CLI sessions
- run_agent.py doesn't set tool_name on tool response messages (pre-existing)
- Insights now also extracts tool names from tool_calls JSON on assistant
messages, which IS populated for all sessions
- Uses max() merge strategy to avoid double-counting between sources
3. SELECT * replaced with explicit column list
- Skips system_prompt and model_config blobs (can be thousands of chars)
- Reduces memory and I/O for large session counts
4. Sets in overview dict converted to sorted lists
- models_with_pricing / models_without_pricing were Python sets
- Sets aren't JSON-serializable — would crash json.dumps()
5. Negative duration guard
- end > start check prevents negative durations from clock drift
6. Model breakdown sort fallback
- When all tokens are 0, now sorts by session count instead of arbitrary order
7. Removed unused timedelta import
Added 6 new tests: dated model pricing (4), tool_calls JSON extraction,
JSON serialization safety. Total: 69 tests.
Custom OAI endpoints, self-hosted models, and local inference should NOT
show fabricated cost estimates. Changed default pricing from $3/$12 per
million tokens to $0/$0 for unrecognized models.
- Added _has_known_pricing() to distinguish commercial vs custom models
- Models with known pricing show $ amounts; unknown models show 'N/A'
- Overview shows asterisk + note when some models lack pricing data
- Gateway format adds '(excludes custom/self-hosted models)' note
- Added 7 new tests for custom model cost handling
Inspired by Claude Code's /insights, adapted for Hermes Agent's multi-platform
architecture. Analyzes session history from state.db to produce comprehensive
usage insights.
Features:
- Overview stats: sessions, messages, tokens, estimated cost, active time
- Model breakdown: per-model sessions, tokens, and cost estimation
- Platform breakdown: CLI vs Telegram vs Discord etc. (unique to Hermes)
- Tool usage ranking: most-used tools with percentages
- Activity patterns: day-of-week chart, peak hours, streaks
- Notable sessions: longest, most messages, most tokens, most tool calls
- Cost estimation: real pricing data for 25+ models (OpenAI, Anthropic,
DeepSeek, Google, Meta) with fuzzy model name matching
- Configurable time window: --days flag (default 30)
- Source filtering: --source flag to filter by platform
Three entry points:
- /insights slash command in CLI (supports --days and --source flags)
- /insights slash command in gateway (compact markdown format)
- hermes insights CLI subcommand (standalone)
Includes 56 tests covering pricing helpers, format helpers, empty DB,
populated DB with multi-platform data, filtering, formatting, and edge cases.
